A honing / stropping sessions should be great, Ilija is a great guy!

That soap you have is supposed to be really top notch, actually the same soap as Mitchell Wool Fat, and it's not cheap either, iirc...

Even if the strop has a few cuts it can still work. At least you can use it to perfect your technique. Then getting one of the strops recommended here will be a treat that won't go sour (as it would if you sliced your new strop due to bad technique)

Thanks! I didn't want to order one and find out it was the wrong thing!

I do like the Kent and it has also lasted quite some time which is always a good thing.

Good point about the practice! Fortunately the cuts are at the bottom as well.
